Faux beach, Germany c. 1905 GB0550 Costume String tie shoulder straps horizontal striped maillot pantaloon. Almost a strapless. TL. Cleavage. Shoulder. Actions This curiously-framed bathing beauty reclines on her side on her towel. Her neckline is scooped and string strapped, and her left shoulder strap has fallen offshoulder (1).
